NSW Food Technology Years 9-10 (Stage 5, Year 10) - the major food project, food innovation and entrepreneurship, food and society - expressed in Dux teaching language.
Dux tracks each dot point separately, so “I did Food Technology Year 10” becomes a list of specific things you can already do and specific things you have never been asked. Open a module for all of its dot points, written out.
A sustained food product or service project, from brief to evaluation.
Turning a food idea into something people buy, legally and sustainably.
Food systems as public issues: access, health, equity and environment.
A Food Technology Year 10 paper is not one question type repeated. Each command word asks for a different shape of answer, and each is worth a different number of marks.
| Command word | Question type | Marks |
|---|---|---|
| analyse | Short answer | 3–5 |
| describe | Short answer | 2–3 |
| evaluate | Extended response | 4–6 |
| explain | Short answer | 3–4 |
| identify | Multiple choice | 1 |
| select | Multiple choice | 1 |
Year 10 Assessment Task Shape — 50 marks, 75 minutes. Practice papers in Dux are assembled to this shape rather than invented, so the timing is training too.
Diagnostic first, then questions written in the shape this course uses. Written answers come back marked against the bands, not just scored.
